CRITIC REVIEWS
90
Ba Power is a contemporary ngoni masterclass.
90
Ba Power feels like another dramatic leap forward and a further landmark in the integration of African tribal rhythms and western rock’n’roll.
80
It’s the sound of an artist who has achieved a level of mastery of his own instrument and rather than sit still has sought new directions to move in.
80
Kouyaté offers an even more explicit nod towards Nigeria’s Fela Kuti this time around ... But more idyllic sections resonate, too.
80
A set that succeeds because of Kouyaté’s memorable playing on the attacking Waati or the bluesy Bassekouni, the commanding vocal work of his wife, Amy Sacko, and a fine selection of thoughtful songs.
